ZACARIAH RIEKE 2017

Exhibitions

In 2016 Zachariah Rieke worked intensely on a new series of pieces that incorporated his gestural, sweeping style but that were wholly realized when he tore the existing canvas into sections and reconfigured the parts. What followed was spatially complex with gestural alignments and misalignments that changed the emotion captured in the strokes. The canvas is mounted on panel.

Prior to this, originating in 2005, Zack’s work is described as a layering of expressive Zen gestures derived from enso - a spiritual expression of raw emotion and interpretations of enlightenment that are expected to transfer to the viewer. The purity of the epiphany is never lost, but is captured in the painted gesture, and it is fresh and real each time it is viewed.

Art + Design At Smink

The pandemonium of Art and Design is pulling together a great collection under one roof; products designed by big name designers and manufactured by the best companies, and coupling these all together with a beautiful group of fine art, primarily paintings, photographs and sculpture.

SMINK has been representing both contemporary and classic modern furniture lines, as well as fine art for over 25 years in Dallas, Texas. We have gathered great manufacturers to us that represent the products of many famous designers – Minotti with the work of Rodolfo Dordoni, onecollection with the work of Finn Juhl, Living Divani with the work of Piero Lissoni, Porro with Lissoni, Massaud, Pillet, Rennie, and Kettal with Patricia Urquiola, Jasper Morrison, and Dordoni. These are the great minds of the modern age – all of whom pursued the elegance of perfect design.
